Is this clip really demonstrative of how Trump voters feel about the trans community?

Comparing Mace's childish use of an offensive slur to a Latin prefix is one of the most privileged opinions I have seen today. You are not oppressed for being cis.


Again with the entitlement.


How am I entitled?


Women: People are using “cis” as a slur, using it to threaten us, we consider it is a slur.

Transgender poster: “Cis is not a slur.” Proceeds to call women who have said they consider it a slur “cis.”

If that isn’t profound entitlement, I don’t know what is. And for what it’s worth, I agree with you about Mace. She is being unprofessional and rude. But you are also being rude, and extremely entitled.

Thank for mansplaining how I should feel about being referred to as “cis” woman.



Point to where I told you how to feel about anything.


“Cis is not a slur.”


That was me stating my opinion.

By your logic, Mace is also just stating her opinion.

I haven't called anyone here cis. I haven't been rude or called anyone names. In my personal experience (personal!!! not saying you need to feel this way too!!!) I have never seen anyone threaten someone by calling them cis, or use cis in a demeaning way, or make fun of someone for being "cis". If you have personal experiences of this happening, feel free to share.

Straight white cis woman. It is not a slur. Your feelings are not reality, pp. Sorry if that disrupts your view of your mind as the arbiter of objective reality.

I’ve seen cis used in very derogatory ways to exclude and harm kids. It is absolutely used as a slur, especially among teens.

There are always pick-mes and handmaidens, yes. We know.

Do you think slurs are defined as “something you’ve personally witnessed being used”?

You are entitled too if you think you’re the person who defines what is acceptable to find offensive and what isn’t. Yours is an opinion; no more or less than anyone else’s.

Some mentally fragile broads on the right, huh? It’s like all that religious indoctrination just melted their brains.

Those are slurs, PP. Although factual…

It’s rude to say cis is not a slur when many of us have said we consider it to be a slur. It’s an invalidation of the feelings of others.

Anti religious bigotry is a bad look, PP, especially when people haven’t been using religion as their arguments for why a term is considered offensive. You seem to have a real hang up on this.

You literally wrote “You are not oppressed for being cis.” That is objectively calling people here who have said they consider “cis” a slur by that slur.

And that is calling names. When you address someone by a term they have said is a slur, that is calling them names. I will never use the t-word because some (not all) transgender people consider it a slur. I consider cis a slur. And it is often used as one. Many, many women feel the way I do. If you choose to keep using it, you are no better than Mace.

I voted for Harris and consider cis to be a slur, and I am an atheist.

It’s always so shocking how quickly the vicious misogyny pours out of trans activists when they encounter an opinion from a woman they don’t like.

“ Just to clear things up: cis is not a slur”

You are stating this as fact, but that is your opinion.

Stop telling me that my opinion and the feelings around it are invalid.
